Photo Tour: Art of Animation Resort Desserts

Welcome to the Disney Food Blog. If you enjoy this post, you should check out the tour of the site to see all the great Disney Food information we have.

With the opening of Disney World’s newest resort — Art of Animation — we have all new delicious food to sample. The Landscape of Flavors food court offers some unique desserts that you can’t find anywhere else in Disney World! Let’s take a peek…

First up, I love these one-of-a-kind Rice Krispie Treats that feature the characters you’ll find decorating the Art of Animation resort buildings!

Krispie Treats

Landscape of Flavors offers a variety of gelato flavors for your cold sweet tooth! I love the fun designs the cast members have made on the top! (See any hidden characters?)

Gelato

Pistachio Gelato, when they’ve got it, is a very popular flavor!

And, of course, there are some goodies to customize your chilly treat…

Toppings

Once in a while you’ll find mini-cheesecakes in the refrigerator case that are perfect to share (or not)!

Oh, great article, Kim! I’m going to AoA in Nov. and love any info on it. The crispy treats are adorable; almost too cute to eat (almost!). The gelato looks wonderful even without any toppings and you guys have me so excited about cupcakes this trip!!!!! Thank you so much for this article. We’re getting close to the 2 month mark and I’m getting so excited!

Um WOW! Pretty awesome selection. I’m staying at Wilderness Lodge this trip and AoA next year for several days after we cruise on the Fantasy, so I may just have to make a special trip over there next month for that gelato! …and mini cheesecakes/cupcakes.

I agree! This site is my ‘go to’ site before I check ANYTHING ELSE! Even before email! I love the tips, advice and all the wonderful photos with each article. Definitely puts me in a good mood. BTW! That gelato looks marvelous! Love all the hidden mickey’s on top and cannot wait for these next 3 weeks to go by so I can finally try that macaroon cupcake!!!!

Thanks for the update! I’m off to AOA in 69 days and am psyched for any new info on Landscape of Flavors. We’re doing the DDP for the first time and I have been worried about having the appetite for a dessert at every meal. I’m less worried after seeing these options!

Just returned from a week stay at Art of Animation. Landscape of flavors tasted great, but it was impossible to navigate. Imagine you have small children and you need to hold their food. Then you need to go to stations spread out all over the large area. People weaving everywhere no order, you have a cafeteria tray to fit all your items on. Then if you have a meal plan you need to get drinks. There is nowhere to set your tray to get into the drink area and take out your drinks. I could not hold 4 bottles and a tray of food. A logistics nightmare you could only get one meal at a time and if your kids are small you are making several trips to the food counters then checking out and repeat. Items were hard to find and the few signs there were changed every 5 seconds so you could not read what was offered at the food stations.
